Rejection at Nazareth
54 He went to His hometown(A) and began to teach them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, “How did this wisdom and these miracles come to Him?(B) 55 Isn’t this the carpenter’s son?(C) Isn’t His mother called Mary, and His brothers James,(D) Joseph,[a] Simon, and Judas?(E) 56 And His sisters, aren’t they all with us? So where does He get all these things?” 57 And they were offended by Him.
But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his household.”(F) 58 And He did not do many miracles there because of their unbelief.
John the Baptist Beheaded
14 At that time(G) Herod the tetrarch(H) heard the report about Jesus. 2 “This is John the Baptist!” he told his servants. “He has been raised from the dead, and that’s why supernatural powers are at work in him.”(I)
3 For Herod had arrested John, chained[b] him, and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,(J) 4 since John had been telling him, “It’s not lawful(K) for you to have her!” 5 Though he wanted to kill him, he feared the crowd, since they regarded him as a prophet.(L)
6 But when Herod’s birthday celebration came, Herodias’s daughter danced before them[c] and pleased Herod. 7 So he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask. 8 And prompted by her mother, she answered, “Give me John the Baptist’s head here on a platter!” 9 Although the king regretted it, he commanded that it be granted because of his oaths and his guests. 10 So he sent orders and had John beheaded in the prison. 11 His head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, who carried it to her mother. 12 Then his disciples came, removed the corpse,[d] buried it, and went and reported to Jesus.

New International Version
54 Coming to his hometown, he began teaching the people in their synagogue,(A) and they were amazed.(B) “Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?” they asked. 55 “Isn’t this the carpenter’s son?(C) Isn’t his mother’s(D) name Mary, and aren’t his brothers(E) James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? 56 Aren’t all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?” 57 And they took offense(F) at him.
But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own town and in his own home.”(G)
58 And he did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith.
John the Baptist Beheaded(H)
14 At that time Herod(I) the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus,(J) 2 and he said to his attendants, “This is John the Baptist;(K) he has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”
3 Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison(L) because of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,(M) 4 for John had been saying to him: “It is not lawful for you to have her.”(N) 5 Herod wanted to kill John, but he was afraid of the people, because they considered John a prophet.(O)
6 On Herod’s birthday the daughter of Herodias danced for the guests and pleased Herod so much 7 that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked. 8 Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.” 9 The king was distressed, but because of his oaths and his dinner guests, he ordered that her request be granted 10 and had John beheaded(P) in the prison. 11 His head was brought in on a platter and given to the girl, who carried it to her mother. 12 John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it.(Q) Then they went and told Jesus.

Matthew 13:54-14:12
King James Version
54 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?
55 Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?
57 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
14 At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,
2 And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.
3 For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.
4 For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.
5 And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
6 But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.
7 Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.
8 And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger.
9 And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.
10 And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.
11 And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother.
12 And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.
